"Agent Orange"

THIS POEM IS DEDICATED TO GEORGE WILLIAMS A VIETNAM VET AND A TRUE HERO. MAY HE REST IN PEACE THANK YOU GEORGE FOR THE PRIVLIAGE OF KNOWING YOU AND THE SERVICE TO YOUR COUNTRY.




I WALKED THROUGH JUNGLES OF DEATH AND PAIN
CHILDREN CRYING IN THE RAIN.
SMOKE FILLED SKIES OF THIS TERRIABLE WAR
PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IM FIGHTING FOR!!!!
MY BROTHERS FALL BESIDE ME AND SCREAM THERE LAST BREATH
THE ONLY THING I DREAM ABOUT IS SUFFERING AND DEATH
I FOUGHT TO MAKE OUR COUNTRY SAFE SECURE AND FREE
AND NOW I MUST SUFFER THE PAIN AND AGONEY
THIS WAR HAS NEVER LEFT MY SIDE THE PAIN IS IN MY BONES
BUT I AM A HERO AND WILL NOT DIE ALONE.
MY FAMILY CRIES AND HOLDS MY HAND THE PAIN I JUST CAN'T BEAR
WHY MUST I GO THIS WAY IT JUST DOES NOT SEEM FAIR
GOD PLEASE LOOK DOWN ON ME AND PLEASE TAKE ME HOME
AND WITH YOU BY MY SIDE I'LL NEVER BE ALONE
I KNOW YOU HAVE A PLAN FOR ME AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE
WHAT ITS LIKE TO LIVE A LIFE HAPPY AND CARE FREE!!!
